Technical Behavioral
I applied on campus and had a quick chat with an engineer the day after. A few days later, they invited me for an on-site interview in Austin. The on-site day was pretty long, involving four technical interviews, a chat with the recruiter, and a HR-style interview with a senior developer, which took up most of the morning and afternoon. Overall, I liked the experience, but they never got back to me after the period they mentioned.

Technical Coding Behavioral Presentation
Submitted an application online and then heard back from a recruiter. Had an interview on campus, and then was invited for a second round of interviews at the company's office. This onsite portion had like four or five interviews back-to-back. Everyone was really nice, from the recruiters to the interviewers. I even got sick the week of my interviews, and they were cool about it. Overall, it was a great experience and it felt like they genuinely care about the people interviewing with them.

Coding Behavioral
I met them at a career fair and then had an interview at their downtown Austin office. After some initial warm-up questions, I went through a long coding interview that focused on a single problem. The office itself was nice, and the people were friendly. Finding parking downtown was difficult, and I had to pay for it since I missed their validated parking lot. I didn't get the job, likely because I struggled a few times during the coding interview.
